The Day I Became Strong

Eight-year-old Isa is on vacation with her mother on a farm in Lower Bavaria, where there is a shaggy farm dog and a big cherry tree. Isa is surprised that the farmer's wife does not want to pick the cherries that grow at the top of the tree. "Then don't go up, the four san fier gels," explains the farmer's wife. "Can't we go up there?" Isa wonders and tries it. At first it's fine. But at a certain point he no longer knows what to do. And the higher it goes, the stronger the wind blows. What should she do? Give up or find a safe place in the tree to eat the sweet cherries?
